One of the guys I worked with talked about a new "muffin" recipe using instant oatmeal.
Beat 1 egg add 1 package oatmeal to the egg and stir. Add any fruit you like. Nuke 1 minute 15 seconds.
I don't buy instant oatmeal. I do have some organic quick cooking oatmeal and played with this recipe and come up with something I think works well and is rather tasty, low sugar and few carbs.
2 Tablespoons dry oatmeal
2 ounces milk
1 egg, beaten (because it's a bad egg and deserves the beating)
Spices
Any sweetener you choose (2 Tablespoons Xylitol)
Any fruit (If you want fruit) I chose dried blueberries....because I had them and they are unsweetened.
Beat the egg, add spices and sweetener. Mix well. Add the oatmeal and fruit. Yes, mix again.
You can do this in a cup or bowl.
I then nuke about 2 minutes. The length of time is up to you, yet I suggest at least a minute.

It filled a void and was quite tasty.
You could use almond or soy milk and I imagine you could add Protein powder to it for more protein.
I am still experimenting.........perhaps I will play with apple sauce. Just so many choices. Hmmmmmmmm perhaps a bacon with maple flavoring. That would definitely taste like Breakfast of old.
